Grow Your Tech Literacy & Code Awareness

Overview: Technology is everywhere. For both new and established businesses, it’s adapt and incorporate technology or die. Whether you are in the corporate space contemplating new technology or among the vast wilderness of younger technology companies, there seems to be growing divide between the technical teams and everyone else.

This workshop will give you a better understanding of how to approach, appreciate, understand, and better communicate with that often misunderstood developer, ultimately helping you drive value in a business by establishing successful communication channels with key team members.

Intended Audience: This course is designed for anyone who works with or hopes to work with coders, developers, engineers, and product managers. Non-technical co-founders, product managers, sales people, marketers, investors, and college students are encouraged to attend.

The Details: This workshop will cover the basics of coding and managing coders and tech teams.

Learn how to:

Communicate with and manage developers.

Specify your product idea or feedback.

Hire and evaluate a developer for your project.

Manage the development process.

Evaluate code quality.

Gain an understanding of:

A day in the life of a developer. Are they really Prima Donnas?

Why it sucks to work on things that never make it to production/the market.

Key terms such as User Experience, User Stories, Back-end, Front-end, and Full Stack.

The most common tech stacks and the purpose behind components and frameworks.

The best questions to ask developers.

Why: Our experience instructors have managed multiple tech teams and are continually amazed at how many people are intimidated by developers and anything related to coding. For years, the fear of looking stupid kept them from asking the basic questions! We don't want that to happen to you! There are no stupid questions at this workshop.
